Liked: Lovely basic site with immaculate clean toilets,stunning views and far away from the madness of the busy seaside resorts,yet only 30 min drive from looe if you want the coast. Access road is only advisable for cars with decent ground clearance,so no lowered suspension vehicle here.owners are on hand to help and keep the place real clean.amazing value at £15 per night,had owls flying around at dusk which was fab and lots other wildlife,firepits were provided f.o.c. toilets were clean and the 2 showers hot and warm.it is a small site so the limited toilets/showers caused us no problems. It is back to nature and a great place to reset and forget about the mad world we live in. Washing up facilities only had cold water but we just boiled a kettle so no issue from us. We absolutely loved our stay on this hidden jem and will spread the word to friends and family
Disliked: Nothing to dislike from us

Liked: What a fantastic 5 day stay at pipers! We were instantly blown away with the views and tranquility at this hidden gem. We love camping and this has by far been the best location. The facilities were a true luxury, hot showers and clean facilities, without taking away the true experience of camping. Dan and Sheila went out of their way to accommodate all of our needs and their recommendations for where to visit were great 😊 you really were AMAZING! We had a fab time and are already talking about booking our next visit!
Disliked: Nothing!

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the isolation & tranquility of the site. In relation to access we will request a change to pitch up to say it is down an unmade / unadopted country lane.Prior to opening we undertook a lot of repairs to the lane to make it more smooth/accessible. We are now awaiting for the council/ highways to alter their drainage at the top of the lane. It is excess water off this which is causing the problems going down the lane.Once this as been addressed we will be able to make further repairs..
Great site, really clean & easy drive to local places,
